Steps

  1. 1
    To begin, unlock the phone, which we can do by pressing our finger to the Home button at the bottom of the screen
    .
    This is the fingerprint scanner, which makes it fast and easy to access the Home screen and all of the applications.

    When we receive friend requests, red notifications appear next to the second icon on the bottom menu bar
    .
    This icon has an image of a couple of people, and below that it says 'Requests' The red circle has a number '1' in it, which symbolizes one request.

    Tap on the 'Requests' icon to open it and see all the friend requests
    .
    We can confirm requests and add that person as a friend, or we can delete friend requests, which means ignoring it and not accepting the friend request.

    To delete a friend request, tap on the 'Delete' button on the same line with the profile picture of the person who sent that request

  10. 10
    To delay a friend request without having to remove it or add the person, don't tap on anything and simply close the 'Friend Requests' page by tapping on any of the icons at the bottom of the screen
    .
    The Friend Requests will still remain on our account even if we do not respond to them right away. However, once these requests are opened and viewed, they will no longer appear as a notification next to the 'Requests' icon on the menu bar at the bottom of the screen.
